progestin-based contraceptive implants
Why specifically the implants do you think? I appreciate more studies especially looking at extended usage are definitely needed. At least so far there's no evidence of increase in certain kinds of cancers or reduction of bone density (unlike depo). Still, I've just realised I've been using nexplanon for 15 years and I have no way to know what impact it's actually had on me.

There is an ongoing study showing that artificial sweeteners (Aspartamein particular) cause cancer.
All those people trying to stay healthy to drinking diet things... are giving themselves cancer instead.
There are studies showing something is causing cancer for almost everything you eat. Wasn't there even a study that showed increased cancer risk if you eat potato chips? Or eggs?
